    Spent one night just east of the pier in 18 feet of water.
    Wind East from the West at about 8 knots but that was enough to make things a little uncomfortable.
    Looks like it would be a fun place with nice beaches in warmer weather.
    Didn’t go ashore. Looks like everything is shut down so we couldn’t see the old fort. I’m guessing things are closed because of COVID.
